Extremely Disappointing DJ Experience — Our Wedding Processional Was Ruined
Unfortunately, we had an extremely disappointing experience with DJ Nose at our wedding on October 16, ...2026. I genuinely wish I could leave a better review, but several issues, particularly during our ceremony, significantly impacted one of the most important days of our lives.
The biggest disappointment was what happened during my bridal processional. My husband and I had put so much thought into this moment, and I had even paid a professional to custom-create our processional song because it held special meaning for us. We had planned for a specific portion of the song to play as I walked down the aisle.
However, right before my entrance, the DJ's sound system completely cut out for approximately two minutes or more. Everyone was left waiting while the technical difficulties were resolved. When the music finally came back on, instead of playing the designated portion of the song for my entrance, he restarted the entire track from the beginning. As a result, the carefully planned music for my walk down the aisle was never played as intended.
I cannot express how disappointing this was. Your wedding processional is a once-in-a-lifetime moment, and no amount of money can recreate it. We had invested additional time, money, and effort into making this moment special, only for it to be disrupted by technical difficulties and incorrect music playback.
Beyond this, multiple guests mentioned that the microphone audio during the ceremony was not particularly clear, making portions of the service difficult to hear. We were also underwhelmed by the reception DJing. We had expected professional mixing and smooth transitions to maintain the energy on the dance floor, but much of the music was simply played straight through, song after song.
What makes this experience even more frustrating is the lack of communication afterward. We reached out directly to Norman to explain our concerns and request a partial refund, but we have received no response as of writing this review. It is disappointing enough to have these issues occur on our wedding day, but to receive no acknowledgment afterward makes the situation even worse.
We understand that technical difficulties can happen, but we hired a professional DJ specifically so we wouldn't have to worry about the music and sound during such important moments. Unfortunately, the service fell far short of our expectations.
I would strongly encourage future couples to discuss technical backup plans, confirm all ceremony music cues, and ensure expectations for reception mixing are clearly established before booking. I sincerely wish we had a different experience, especially for a day we can never redo.
